If it was PBF in there that night, could he have kept Margito off him like Manny did?

[MindBat]

Margo never said Floyd's name after a fight...never....none of Arum's fighters say the "M" word after a fight....even when asked directly.

Seems like Bob has a gag order on those guys not to mention Floyd's name or call him out in post fight interviews. Makes you wonder.

the margothat fought manny would have been stomped by floyd ud 120 108 across the boeard. if it was the margo that fought cotto back in 08 idk i wouldnt bet the farm on floyd then. what i dont understand about *******s is that when manny fights these "name" fighters is a huge part of it not just that he fought a name. are you guys gonna say how manny whipped the best mosley ever?

An out of shape Daniel Santos fought and beat a prime Tony.

Mayweather > Fat Daniel Santos

Marge NEVER had a single chance in hell to beat Floyd...if he did...Arum would have made it happen.

Perfect example.

All Top Rank fighters act like the Stepford Wives when asked about fighting Mayweather during post fight interviews.

Sure....they talk a good game in Spanish ****zines and talk shows.....but soon as those HBO camera's are in their faces they suddenly forget Floyd's name.

The only problem about that, Marquez & Floyd were on the P4P list. Im still not getting it on how Dawson or Lewis could call eachother out if only 1 is on the P4P list.

Im not here trying to argue that they couldn't fight. Im just stating that there should be nothing wrong with 2 guys, the number 1 and number 2 guy coming together for a fight, even if one is a weight class lower. And thats what happened there with Marquez.

It could also be compared to Roy Jones vs Lewis, remember Jones went for John Ruizs Paper HW title, instead of going for Lennox's HW title.

marquez is a ballooned LW and floyd didn't even come at the accorded catch weight. lets assume JMM is a natural LW (he's really a SFW), it's still 2 weight classes apart

for an old man, it's impossible to carry his goods (speed, power, etc) in such a jump. that fight shouldn't have happened, even as a tune up

So bassically your saying that Arum is protecting any fighter from Floyd which he thinks that would be no threat to Floyd?

Do you think he thought that Cotto had a chance against Floyd?

[Slick_Rick]

Margo wasn't even a PPV attraction at the time. Oscar was an attraction. Hatton was an attraction.

I'm sure that if Margo would've said something as ****** as Ricky did, Floyd would have likely fought him just to eliminate a Top Rank fighter.

He was a attraction after the Cotto fight, but Floyd chose to retire..

And the video in which Margo asks for a fight is well known and makes Floyd look very bad.

[FerdinandMarcos]

Perfect example.

There is only ONE version of Margarito.

He's the same today as he's ever been.

[champ_kw]

You mean the Tony that couldn't even beat an out of shape Daniel Santos????

C'mon now..

Marge never had a very good chance..if so...Arum would have cancelled Tony's ppv extravaganza with LIGHTWEIGHT Manuel "shot to hell" Gomez"..

But Bob said

"I can't get out of the Gomez fight,I have too much invested"

LOL


If Arum had a fighter that could beat Floyd he'd move heaven and earthe make it happen.He KNOWS he doesn't.

This right here is gospel.

Retiring had nothing to do with sorry-ass Margarito.

If Tony had the game to beat Floyd he would have killed Shane Mosley...not lose every round and get KTFO...lol
